Last week we finalized our product launch for central venous access at the Hospital Mexico, Costa Rica's largest hospital (around 700 beds). This important facility has just started using our central venous access catheters across multiple departments - ICU, emergency, surgery and others. For us it is fundamental to make sure that physicians & nurses are well educated about our products, best practices relating to patient management in our field and other empowering information so that we can ensure the best outcomes possible - for the caregivers and their patients. This would not be possible of course without the dedicated and meticulous work of our fantastic team - Andrea Bejarano, Emerson Morales from Tate' Medical Ltd. , Maria Diaz Alonso from Kimal, Leidy Vásquez from Capris Medica. The week was spent going, group by group, within the hospital training and demonstrating all clinical and practical aspects of the use of our products. As the requirements from the medical staff differ from department to department within an institution, it was important for our team to dedicate the time to create small groups of healthcare providers with, and across, each department. It is our "Educate to Elevate" philosophy in practice. A World Economic Forum executive focused on Central America said in a local Central America conference last year that: "The private sector has a central role in driving economic growth, and driving innovation and success of public-private partnerships. In Central America it is critical that governments, companies, and institutions work together." We feel fortunate to contribute our modest part to this partnership with the public institutions in Costa Rica and across Central America.
